I loved the old Historical and Biblical epics you see on Sunday afternoon, such movies as The Robe, Cleopatra, you know where I’m coming from.
When I read in MovieWeb that a film is in the works to portray the story of the Eqyptian Queen Nefertiti images of these movies flooded into my head, accompanied by Richard Burton (whom I was named after) in full costume. Oh those were the days for some great movies.
According to Production Weekly, Monster’s Ball duo, Halle Berry and director Marc Forester are planning to re-team on the story of Egyptian queen Nefertiti, the wife of the great Pharaoh Akhenaten who achieved status similiar to that of her husband.
I do so hope they pile money and production value at this project, it would be amazing to see a modern movie attempt to recreate that big epic feel. It would also be good to see Berry back in something that might bring out her acting talents.
